Finta Rate Limits

Overview

Finta operates as a web-first fundraising platform without a traditional REST API, so rate limits manifest as plan-tier usage caps rather than HTTP request quotas. When building integrations through Finta's webhook events or Zapier connectors, the bottleneck is typically the number of investor pipeline records, deal room operations, and Aurora AI suggestion calls you can make within your plan tier. Teams running active fundraising rounds need to understand these ceilings to avoid mid-raise disruptions.

Rate Limit Reference

Endpoint / Feature	Limit	Window	Scope
Investor pipeline records	50 (Free) / Unlimited (Pro)	Rolling	Per workspace
Deal room creation	1 (Free) / Unlimited (Pro)	Rolling	Per workspace
Aurora AI suggestions	10/day (Free) / 100/day (Pro)	24 hours	Per user
Webhook event delivery	100 events	1 minute	Per workspace
Data room file uploads	25 (Free) / Unlimited (Pro)	Rolling	Per deal room

Rate Limiter Implementation

class FintaUsageTracker {
  private counts: Map<string, { used: number; limit: number; resetAt: number }> = new Map();

  register(resource: string, limit: number, windowMs: number) {
    this.counts.set(resource, { used: 0, limit, resetAt: Date.now() + windowMs });
  }

  async acquire(resource: string): Promise<boolean> {
    const entry = this.counts.get(resource);
    if (!entry) throw new Error(`Unknown resource: ${resource}`);
    if (Date.now() > entry.resetAt) { entry.used = 0; entry.resetAt = Date.now() + 86_400_000; }
    if (entry.used >= entry.limit) return false;
    entry.used++;
    return true;
  }

  remaining(resource: string): number {
    const entry = this.counts.get(resource);
    return entry ? entry.limit - entry.used : 0;
  }
}

const tracker = new FintaUsageTracker();
tracker.register("aurora_suggestions", 100, 86_400_000);
tracker.register("webhook_events", 100, 60_000);

Retry Strategy

async function fintaWebhookRetry(payload: any, webhookUrl: string, maxRetries = 3): Promise<void> {
  for (let attempt = 0; attempt <= maxRetries; attempt++) {
    try {
      const res = await fetch(webhookUrl, {
        method: "POST",
        headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
        body: JSON.stringify(payload),
      });
      if (res.ok) return;
      if (res.status === 429) {
        const delay = Math.pow(2, attempt) * 5000 + Math.random() * 2000;
        await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, delay));
        continue;
      }
      throw new Error(`Webhook delivery failed: ${res.status}`);
    } catch (err) {
      if (attempt === maxRetries) throw err;
      await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, Math.pow(2, attempt) * 3000));
    }
  }
}

Batch Processing

async function batchSyncInvestors(investors: any[], batchSize = 20) {
  const results: any[] = [];
  for (let i = 0; i < investors.length; i += batchSize) {
    const batch = investors.slice(i, i + batchSize);
    for (const investor of batch) {
      const allowed = await tracker.acquire("webhook_events");
      if (!allowed) { await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 60_000)); }
      results.push(await fintaWebhookRetry(investor, WEBHOOK_URL));
    }
    if (i + batchSize < investors.length) await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 3000));
  }
  return results;
}

Error Handling

Issue	Cause	Fix
Plan limit reached	Free tier investor cap (50)	Upgrade to Pro or archive inactive investors
Aurora AI unavailable	Daily suggestion quota exhausted	Wait for 24h reset or upgrade plan
Webhook delivery 429	Burst of pipeline events	Queue events, deliver with 1s spacing
Deal room locked	Free plan single-room limit	Close existing room before opening new one
File upload rejected	Data room storage cap on Free tier	Compress files or upgrade plan
